| Abstract(in English) | Most of region extraction methods using active contour model deform the contour model according to the local information along contours. For this reason it is difficult to extract a region with complex shape or varying texture by these methods. In this article, to use the global information for region extraction, a method using competition of multiple active contours is proposed. In the proposed method, multiple active contour models are set in the object and the background regions respectively. For a region in each contour model, the likelihood is estimated from the distribution of feature value. By the likelihood-based competition between regions, an object region is extracted as a set of regions. The effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed by experiments of artificial and real images. |
